Indulge in a Spa Pedicure

One of my fav things to do, is to have a home made spa pedicure.  With all the rushing around we do everyday, its 30 min of bliss I indulge in every now and then.

It really does not take a lot, so I hope I inspire you all to have a little time for yourself.

I fill a small basin/bucket with warm water and then put the secret ingredient in. 

Lectric Soda Crystals

you can get then in your local supermarket, usually in the laundry aisle.  They cost less than $4.00 a packet and its the best money you will ever spend.

Soak your feet for about 15-20 min and then dry them.

Sometimes that is all I do and it feels like I am walking on air when I am done.

I also take time to massage some peppermint cream into my feet and then trim my nails and paint them.

I usually like to sip a cup of Earl Grey tea, light a scented candle, pop my Enya CD on, you could also put two wet cotton pads on your eyes and just sit back zone out and chill.

5 songs is usually what i do and then put some socks on and curl on the couch or go straight to bed.

It does not always have to involve a lot of expense, and its a blissful time.

I hope you all find some time this week to take care and be kind to yourself and indulge in simple pleasures.

enjoy

I like to soak my feet too - but i haven't used soda crystals before, might have to try that!

A tip from me too - subtly train your DH to give you a foot rub - it's really good!!!
